If you have answered no to all of the above, Ideology Music Festival is for you; at least the organizers claim so.

But to enjoy it, you will also have to possess a taste for alternative electronic music.

The ninth annual festival will feature big names specializing in innovative mixes of electronic samples, drum patters and vocals, making up musical styles such as drum’n’bass, dubstep and moombahton.

It will explode on Kyiv’s stage, featuring such international bands as The Prototypes, Alex Calver aka Calvertron, Chasing Shadows, Dubsidia and others.

Many of the genres featuring at the festival have appeared recently.

Moombahton, for instance, was invented by an American DJ only three years ago at his cousin’s high school homecoming party, where he mixed a song called “Moombah” with elements from the Latino genre reggaeton.

So, if you want a night of musical discovery, Ideology might be just for you.

Sat, Jan. 28, 10 p.m., club “Home,” 8 Zhmachenko St., tickets: Hr 60.
